BURST Event Co

BURST Event Co is a Chicago-based wedding planning company, woman owned and operated, offering full service, partial, and day-of coordination packages designed around a structured, phase-based planning process. BURST is known for a multi-phase planning structure that covers vendor booking, design and logistics, and final reconciliation, with a focus on queer-affirming practices, gender-neutral language, values-aligned vendor selection, and multi-day or non-traditional wedding formats. Based in Chicago, with documented work on multi-day weddings for couples who do not live locally in Chicago. Couples cite the phase-based planning structure as a source of clarity and reduced stress, praise lead planner Alexis for candid communication, budget honesty, and adapting quickly when a venue cancelled four months out, and note that BURST treated their specific identities, family dynamics, and event vision as central to the planning process.
